If Aarons was just an ordinary noble, he should have started preparing long ago, or had already started thinking about how to leave offspring.

Nobles with fiefs must have blood heirs to inherit the territory, and honorary nobles must ensure that they have descendants to preserve their noble status so that they can wait for an opportunity to make a comeback.

Even in Aarons' previous world, he should have thought about these things long ago.

"However, my husband is still very young, and it has not yet been decided whether he will become a noble of the empire in the future. This is just a contingency plan, so don't worry too much, Senior Sister."

Even though Klia's status has become unattainable, she still treats other people with the same attitude as before.

If we ignore his special abilities, Mo Qianyun can only be considered an apprentice under Jiang Yue's name - but Keliya did not care about the order of time and this not-so-close connection, and decided on her own title purely based on the difference in appearance.

Now it seems that this is also a manifestation of her self-will that does not allow others to interfere.

"Let's not talk about this for now. Your Highness, why did you suddenly come to see us? Have you finished dealing with your affairs?"

"Not only me, but your work should also be finished. We can prepare to go home soon."

After sitting down next to Karin without caring about her manners, Claire even deliberately reached out to touch the wolf girl's furry tail - this made Karin quite embarrassed, but she didn't know what to say.

Although the tail is not a sensitive part, it still feels a bit subtle to have someone stroke its fur so casually.

"Sister Karin, I heard some of what you said just now - I don't know if I should say this, but actually..."

After hesitating for a moment, the girl, who had always had short dark blond hair but for some reason had a tendency to curl vertically, slowly spoke out a shocking guess.

When she awakened as a child of the star, Klia received some vague information from the planet - after all, the scale of the planet is much larger than that of humans, so the amount of data contained in the information is also exaggerated.

But Klia still captured some key clues from it.

"The heroes from a thousand years ago were actually specifically called by this planet because humanity was indeed facing a huge crisis at the time... But a few months ago, the planet suddenly issued the same call again."

Karin certainly knew what happened a few months ago.

"I don't know what the crisis is this time, but it did summon someone who has the ability to change fate, just like before - and that person is the partner it prepared for me."

If this is what is called fate, then I'm afraid many things have been decided from the beginning.

Although Aarons did not know these things, he still embarked on the path that had been destined for him - this also proved that he did have the ability to match this.

"Those who can gather around my husband must be people whose fate is drawn. So Sister Karin, you don't have to think about those problems. Just keep going according to your own style."

This might just be Keliya's comfort, but Karin felt that it was enough to get such recognition.

"Your Highness, can I ask you one more question?"

In fact, Karin was not worried that she would be abandoned by Aarons, but after seeing other people, she couldn't help but have some thoughts of comparison.

For her, even if more people follow Aarons in the future, she will still be the first one - that time is something that others will never be able to experience.

"If in the future... there are more women around the young master, what will you do?"

"Although I think my husband wouldn't want anyone of all levels, if someone who is similar to everyone else shows up, I can't stop him even if I want to."

This is indeed very pertinent - if there really is another woman at the same level as Aarons, she must be a person with strong self-will and strength, and will not be bound by ordinary rules at all.

And how many people like that are there in this world?

"That's right. If we are the lowest class, then the young master might not look down on ordinary people."

Thinking of the group of monsters around Aarons who only looked like humans on the surface, Karin couldn't help but sigh in distress.

——After all, she is one of them.

……

After Corinth was suddenly attacked, they immediately held emergency negotiations with the empire.

Although assassinations of military figures and attacks on ports never occurred again after the incident, the subtle response of the empire made the Corinthians feel terrified.

The Imperials are clearly fighting a civil war, so why do they seem to have enough spare energy to deal with themselves?

Since Corinth had long known that the only passage between Cadia and the Empire was frozen by a mysterious force, their fear was deepened.

"If they are ready to invade our country... we can't defeat them!"

The military strength that the empire can currently mobilize is not particularly clear, but based on the existing intelligence, the Corinthians know that at least three legions are currently stationed in the border territories, and they also have at least three warships that can operate normally.

Isn't this size of army really used to completely wipe out Corinth?

"What are their demands? Providing supplies at low prices and maintaining normal trade volume... Is this considered testing our bottom line?"

Since almost all the hard-line military leaders had died, the Corinthians had little intention of resisting.

Although the conditions proposed by the Empire were somewhat harsh, it did not intend to put Corinth to death - and the reason this happened was because Corinth had plotted against the Empire first.

"There's nothing we can do... agree to their terms first! Satisfy their demands for now, and then make a decision when the situation within the empire changes!"

Rather than risking the destruction of their country and going into all-out war with the empire, the Corinthians, who were good at business, chose a more secure option.

There will be some losses, but they are still within an acceptable range compared to a war that is unlikely to be won.

"Wow, the Corinthians are indeed very smart, but being overly smart is actually their weakness."

Of course, they didn't realize that the Empire was just bluffing.

Two of the three legions were not fully formed, and the other one had been severely depleted in the previous battle with Cadia. The army in the border territory did not have much combat effectiveness and could not support a full-scale war.

However, the sudden attack on Corinth's key facilities and senior military officials, which was decided by Her Royal Highness the Princess, did effectively interfere with the opponent's judgment.

Even if Corinth intended to continue to maintain a tough stance, the empire would be freed from a potential threat.

"From what I have seen, Her Royal Highness the Princess and His Excellency the Marquis have already made detailed plans for the future. From now on, the empire will be in for a big change."

After returning from Corinth, Minister of Trade Zexiu, who had been in charge of commercial activities within the border territory, expressed such views to the top leaders of several major legions.

Maybe things are really going to change.
